How do you treat a stab wound to the torso?

1. Apply pressure directly to the wound. If the wound is deep and near a major artery, apply pressure to the artery near the wound to stem blood flow.

2. Elevate the wounded area, if possible.

3. Lie still, moving around stimulates blood flow. Keep Warm! Blood loss and shock lower body temperature.

4. Cover the wound with a sterile dressing, if available. If what your using for a dressing is not sterile, make sure its as clean as possible. Its essential to cover a wound as soon as possible.

5. Seek medical assistance immediately. Getting medical assistance decreases chance of infection.

Hope this Helps :)
